Cloud Cost Comparisons

Cloud pricing only makes sense in 비교. On its own, a $0.096 hourly rate tells you nothing; the same 워크로드 might 비용 $0.04 on a competing 프로바이더’s 스팟 market or $0.07 with a 3-year reservation. This section collects head-to-head 비교s that put equivalent services side by side, so you can see the real 비용 difference at a glance.

How to Read These Comparisons

Every 비교 table on CloudCost uses the same columns:

• Service — the equivalent 인스턴스, 스토리지, or network service on each 프로바이더.
• Specification — vCPU, memory, and local 스토리지, so the 비교 is apples-to-apples.
• On-demand 가격 — the published list 가격 for the baseline 리전 (typically us-east-1, East US, us-central1).
• Reserved / committed 가격 — the 가격 with the most common 1-year No Upfront commitment, so you see the realistic steady-state 비용.
• Notes — caveats such as 프리 티어 eligibility, egress rules, or feature differences.

Available Comparisons

• AWS vs Azure — Compute — general-purpose VM families 비교d across on-demand, 1-year 예약, and 스팟 pricing.
• AWS vs GCP — Storage — S3 versus Cloud Storage, with per-GB 스토리지, request, and retrieval pricing.

More 비교s covering databases, networking, and the Alibaba Cloud ecosystem are added regularly. If there is a 비교 you would like to see, open an issue on the GitHub repository.
